The move by UCLA and USC to the Big Ten will mean longer trips for student athletes and the end of away game attendance for many alums and students.

Thanks to op-ed article writer Dave Zirin for being a sane sports voice at The Times in, for so many reasons.

Within 15 seconds of seeing the headline announcing the move, I swore I would never support USC, my alma mater, again. The Trojans and Bruins would not “need” this money if they weren’t overpaying their big-sport coaches. Those who will suffer are the students and alumni in Southern California. The athletes will endure long travel times to the Midwest — where other Big Ten schools are — while they try to keep up with their classes. The student bodies and alumni will no longer have those weekend away games they can drive to in Northern California and Arizona.Glad I’m retired, so I can shred my diploma and my lifetime alumni card. I won’t be needing either of them from now on.

Hate to say it, but I agree. The PAC is dead once they’re gone.

Getting $100,000,000/year is “stupid”?

You're obviously not following the money

Flyover states no more!
